Chinese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery 2003;0(02):-
Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect of the double-orifice technique in the treatment of the anterior leaflet prolapse of mitral valve. Methods: 35 patients with severe anterior leaflet prolapse of mitral valve underwent valve repair using the double-orifice technique. The condition of valve was assessed with echocardiography preoperatively, intraoperatively, and postoperatively. Results: The mean postoperative valve area was (4 1?1 8) cm 2 against the preoperative valve area of (8 3?1 6)cm 2. Mild regurgitation was found in 2 patients after operation. There were no hospital deaths. At the latest follow-up, the heart function was improved significantly in all patients (NYHA class I). Echo-Doppler assessment of valve showed stable valve function in all patients. There were no late stenosis of valve and no late death. Conclusion: The results of this study show that the double-orifice technique is a safe and effective method for treatment of anterior leaflet of mitral valve with low mortality and morbidity, and excellent early and mid-term results.

Objective To introduce the Bernese periacetabular osteotomy through ilioinguinal approach for the treatment of adult acetabular dysplasia. Methods From October 1997 to April 2001, 51 patients(53 hips) with acetabular dysplasia were operated upon with Bernese periacetabular osteotomies through ilioinguinal approach. The mean age of the patients at the time of surgery was 30.6 years(range, 13-48 years). Male∶female= 1∶10. Preoperatively, the average duration of the symptoms was 3.4 years(3 months to 15 years), the range of motion(ROM) of the hip was normal in most patients. Average CE angle was 1.1?(?15?-15?); the Tonnis osteoarthritis grade was Ⅰto Ⅱ. Fifty three percent of the hips had Shentons line broken. Results Twenty four hips had 12 to 38 months followed up. Most patients were pain free; the hip ROM remained normal. Harris hip score increased from 79.8(64-83) pre operatively to 93.8(75-100) post operatively. CE angle increased to 40?(20?to 60?). Shentons line broken rate decreased to 33%. The complications include: 1 femoral nerve damage, 1 bladder malfunction and 2 skin incision hernia. Conclusion The Bernese periacetabular osteotomy through ilioinguinal approach is a safe and efficient procedure for the treatment of adult acetabular dysplasia. The deformities could be easily corrected, the anatomic relations could be restored nicely, the pelvic ring and the abductor muscles are reserved. The post operative recovery is fast, and it is efficient to prevent the development of osteoarthritis of the hip joint.
